GAS-BURNER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Dec. 15. 1914:.

Application filed August 25, 1914. Serial No. 858,483.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM L. BROOKS, a citizen of the United States,residing at Ardmore, in the county of Carter and State of Oklahoma, haveinvented a new and useful Gas-Burner, of which the following is aspecification.

' The present invention relates to improvements in gas burners, oneobject ofthe invention, being the provision of an exceedingly simple anddurable burner of this character, which is adapted to be readily placedwithin a range or furnace, and to burn gas either natural or artificial,so that the greatest heat units may be obtained therefrom, said burnerbeing composed of fittings, that render the same easily installed andafter once adjusted remain in such condition until the same is worn out.

A further object of the present invention, is the provision of a gasburner, in which the main conducting pipe is provided with a pluralityof perforations or jets through which the gas is directed concentricallyof and below a burner tube, so that the proper amount of air may becommingled with the gas to produce the desired heating flame at theoutlet end of the tube.

With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as thedescription proceeds, the invention resides in the combination andarrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the preciseembodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within thescope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of theinvention.

In the drawings-Figure 1 is a side elevation of the complete burnerconstructed according to and embodying the present invention. Fig. 2 isan end view thereof. Fig. 3 is a section taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the burner.

Referring to the drawings, the numeral 1 designates the supply pipe fordirecting gas-in this instance into one outlet of the T-coupling 2,through the burner tube 3. An L-coupling 4 is connected to one end ofthe pipe 3, while the pipe 3 is perforated at equi-distant pointsthrough the upper portion thereof as at 5 so as to form a plurality ofgas directing jets leading therefrom.

Connected in the L-coupling, and in the upper outlet of the T-coupling2, are the respective vertical sealed pipes 6 and 6 which constitute endsupports for the burner tube carrying plate or support 7 This plate fitsover the said end supports and is clamped fixedly thereto by means ofthe set screws 8 and 8. I

The burner tube support 7 is provided with a plurality of apertures 9,one to each i of the respective gas outlets 5 and detachably connectedtherein are the burner tubes 10, which arecylindrical pipes and are heldin adjusted position by'the set screws 10. By this means the burnersupport 7 may be adjusted relatively to the gas outlets 5 so that thesame will be positioned at a proper distance therebelow for the deliveryof the gas into the lower ends of such tubes,

thus insuring the proper amount and mixture of air therewith, so thatthe upper outof the gas, with the greatest possible heat unitstherefrom.

Where the present device is desired to be used in connection withutensil heating, a perforated cap 11, as clearly illustrated in Fig. 1,may be positioned over the outlet end of the respective burner tubes 10,or any one thereof.

In order to provide a shield at one side of the burner support 7 so thatthe gas leading from the respective jets5 will be properly directed intothe respective tubes,

a deflector plate 12 is attached to the rear of the burner tube support7 and depends downwardly therefrom to one side of the main jet carryingtube or pipe 3.

What is claimed is:

1. The herein described gas burner, including ahorizontally disposed gassupply pipe, an upright pipe disposed at right angles to one endthereof, the body of the horizontal pipe being provided with a pluralityof equi-distantly spaced outlet jets upon theside from which the uprightpipe projects, a second pipe carried by the supply pipe upon the sameside as the upright pipe and in parallel to the upright pipe, a sealingcap dis posed; upon the upright and, 1

the second pipe, a plate slidably mounted upon the upright and thesecond pipes and limited in its upward movement by the sealing capsthereof, means for locking said plate upon the upright and second pipesfor adjusting the same relatively to the horizontal pipe,'saidplatebeing provided with a plurality of openings therethrough, one toeach jet, and a plurality of cylindrical tubes one disposed in eachopening With its end adjacent to and spaced from its respective jet ofthe horizontal pipe,

2. The herein described gas burner, ineluding a horizontally disposedgas supply pipe, an upright pipe disposed at right angles to one endthereof, the'body of the horizontalpipe being provided With a pluralityv of equi-distantly spaced outlet jets upon the side from Which theupright pipfe projects, a second pipe carried by the supply pipe uponthe same side as the upright pipe and in parallel with theupright pipe,a sealing cap disposed upon the upright pipe and the second pipe, aplate slidably mounted upon the upright "and second pipes and liinitedin its upward movement by the sealing capthereof; means 'for'lockingsaid plate upon the upright and second pipes and-for adjusting the samerelatively to the horizontal pipe said plate being provided With a 'pl11rality of openings therethrough one to'each jet, a plurality ofcylindrical tubes one disposed in each opening With its end adjacent toand spaced from'its respective jet of the horizontal ipe, and'a shieldprovided with tWo pipe embracingm'embers for engaging the upright andthe second pipes at'a-point above the connection of the plate theretowhereby the body of the shield is disposed to depend at right angles toone edgezoi. the" plate and terminates at a point below the horizontalsupplypipe. i

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aflixedmy signature in thepresence of two Witnesses.
